#NBCNews #FoxNews #Lawsuit
Lawyers are a dime a dozen. Lawyers are going to advise Fox News to make a case settlement to satanic Dominion. There is no lawyer capable of taking on corrupt and incompetent Dominion and destroying that company. Is the CIA, FBI, DOJ and the communist Secretary of State putting too much heat on those attorneys who could destroy Dominion. This massive bowl full of human excrement is growing larger by the day. There will soon be an ocean of blood in this nation and there will be no winners and this nation will cease to exist. The curses of this nation are a sign that this nation will soon become a desolate wasteland. It’s a terrible thing when both Satan and God are against this nation. Only a fool cannot understand this.
All those in favor of proprietary software used to decide our elections raise their hands.
So it was more about money $$$ and not really about fixing the system that allowed media lies misleading misinformation as news.
Let’s not pretend this is just Fox. Every media corp. is bought and payed for. Fox,MSNBC, CNN etc. Journalism doesn’t exist anymore. Just opinions.
Go with the BBC, NPR & PBS…
Unfortunately for me this is a Fox win. What a disappointment. This network needed to be put to the fire. They have gotten away with it and will not stop. It’s not even 50% of what they were sueing for.
Another dark day for law and order
The only way this country moves forward is if Fox publicly admits they lied to gain viewership and take advantage of the public.
this is BS. paying off is not absolution
And people will still watch Fox News and believe everything they say is true. How dumb can one be???
Whoa!!
I bet we won’t see that FAIR & BALANCED slogan again. 😂
How dumb are they? Settling is the same as admitting guilt.
Guilty…. Guilty…..Guilty,
Nobody would settle for $790 Million Freakin Dollars unless they were Guilty as Sin… ~ the problem is … the fake News is what makes them the Money in the first place…
Liars….
Well that stinks!
This is called corruption. What a sad day for democracy and what a sad day for America. Greed is unreal.
FOX reporters are lying dogs. 🦊
fox news is propaganda
but of course fox had to settle. not a surprise at all. when the judge has ruled that fox has broadcast lies and that the only issues remaining are if there is evidence of actual malice or reckless disregard for the truth and, if there is that, how much to pay. now watch out for fox trying to rehabilitate its image…blessings to all
Everyone should know that the George Soros voting machines are as honest as George himself!
There is freedom to stupid speech.. but not freedom after stupid speech😂😂
DOMINION BLUFFED FOX AND STILL ONLY TOOK 1/2 OF SETTLEMENT AMOUNT. THEY KNEW FOX COULD NOT PROVE THEIR CORRUPTION FOR DNC. NOW ALL ELECTIONS WILL STILL BE FRAUD.
In America money matters more than Justice.
Can we break down a kid trying to open a screen door and being shot for it ?
Fox need more lessons
fox news owes the country way more than this tiny fine
And this is what our tax dollars go to…
GOD BLESS FOX NEWS AND GOD BLESS TRUMP HONEST PEOPLE GETTING FINED OR GOING TO JAIL BECAUSE OF CORRUPT POLITICIANS. Look at all the fake Youtube comments or unemployed people to lazy to get a job and on Medicaid.
FUX NEWS will continue to LIE..! 100% ( They are a National Security Threat..! NO LIE..! )
Seriously, while a very significant outcome in legal terms, I feel this is a lost opportunity for the US and the world to see FOX truly held to account and to truly suffer painful consequences to its business and reputation. Money is only money and FOX will just write it off, survive and continue to wreak havoc in the world.
The details matter not. The wing nuts on the right will see this as a win for FOX and FOX will promote it as such.
Watch Trump double down on his lie like a criminal.
Although I did not want Dominion to settle, I’m glad that they at least shined the light of that filthy, corrupt, slanderous, propagandist network and there equally filthy hosts. I would have loved to see Hannity, Carson, Ingraham, The scowling judge, the depressed , crazy Baratimol, et al paraded to the witness stand and forced to tell the truth for first time in their miserable lives.
So… is CNN, NBC and every other news station that did this a thousand times over gonna get sued next?
For what?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is NOT accountability!! This is BS!
Stop the steal
They did lie It wasn’t false claims it is true you guys stole the election dominion
We all know the voting was fake.
After all the damage done by the lies… should be more than that amount.
Man, I had my popcorn ready, too.
Are they gonna shut them down?
Dominion should have taken it to court for democracy. They failed big time.
Should be 1 billion
The only way the country can move on from this is for Fox to stop knowingly airing false information.
Dominion is as crooked as a dog’s hind legs. And likely paid off the corrupt democrat judges. Or sadly any judge for that matter. Enjoy your sh1thole country’s descent into utter lawlessness.
Nice to see someone paying real moolah for being a Trumpet 😂
The rich settle the poor go to jail! That’s how law really works.
Que the Bass!!
Boeing 787 for flying,
Boeing 787 for flying,
Fox News paying 787 for Lying!!!
😳😳😳😳😂🤣😂🤣😂😄😭😭😭
Fox News owned 😂
One lier got catch.
One more to go.
Next.donald.john.trump.the.spirit.of.a.lie
Highest journalistic standard? Yeah right
Should’ve made a whole number 1 Billy or trial
I’m tired of all news networks. Noisy.
This is a good movie plot…
Shame. Dominion may have won the battle, but democracy lost. This should’ve gone to trial and Fox should’ve been forced to admit their crime on their own network at prime time. $787.5 million is too small a price to pay for dividing a nation. Not to mention, Fox will just continue to lie about other things, even more now, because they’d need to recoup their losses.
Fox Lies brought down a peg or two. Innocent people don’t pay 800 million dollars.
Foxy news: between facts and opinions, THEY are those who want to present the info in such a way to present to you..
Dominion, you were supposed to destroy the dark side, not join it.
So the 2024 election if the Democrats win the presidency fox will do it all over again and just pay another half $1 billion we can’t offend are stockholders with the truth
Literally nothing will change smh
So fox News capitulated?
“donald j. Chump”
Why do they still have there jobs!!!
Fox news never ever broadcast true , authentic, and genuine news at all.
Their main purpose is making fakes and false propaganda against truth, justice and rules of law.
This FOX NEWS ( Fake news) must be BANNED 🚫.
I think this is a big tipping point for fox news.
Nice win for Fox News! $787M ain’t bad to win against a voting company that steals elections.
Now how is this going to affect Fox. Will it help slow down the insanity?
*Should have settled for a billion and 100 million every time a host or guest who lies about the voting machine after the settlement*
I consider this suit the price of going WOKE. If FOX would have stuck to its roots. It would have never lied. Thus being sued.
Fox News = Fake News
Looks like Sucker, I mean Tucker, will probably still be there.
I wanted to see Rupert and his cast of clowns admit in court they lied!
Because now the Trump nut cases won’t get REAL INFORMATION and not misinformation which Fox is famously pushing!
Look at the man hanging his head to the left of the FOx spokesman and the woman to the right with that Stand by my man demeanor. 😂
Big mistake on Dominions part
The country cannot move on with fox 🦊 news media propaganda and its company must be stopped dismantled period.???😢😮😂😂.??)
Defamatory statements only matter if they are true .
I’ve literally seen the propaganda from main stream media they got y’all 🐑 🐑 🐑.
Now we as American citizens should file a class action lawsuit against Fox network for lying to American people on a daily basis and getting the country up in arms against one. Where’s the paper let me sign.
Now all different media that is getting the public to think you are news,
all different media that is getting the public to think you are news, stop lying and fooling the public about anything in any way now for all of time. Countless and countless public was worse harmed not knowing that was being done to them by media that got the public to think they were the news.
Donald Trump has started a new fundraiser to cover Foxnew’s lawsuit. Trump says everything Foxnews said was the truth and that he is the bestest truth person on the planet.
Well, at least we know the truth now… that $787 million is the cost of a lie.
Fox News came out ok on this smart move.They save time and and energy by not wasting it in a trial that they had a 50/50 change of winning because of the trial location. They would have won on appeal with no problem. Sorry CNN and other low rated news outlets because Fox News is still going to be #1 and kick your butt.😊
Following Donald Trump will cost you millions!
This is a major win for Dominion.
Three quarters of a billion dollars out of thin air for them, they must be buzzing.
This isn’t small change, there are more cases coming out of this.
All journalists and networks should be held accountable if they tell untruths. I hope this starts a trend.
Fox😂😂😂
FAUX News needs to be bankrupted.
When is POWEL and RUDY going to Prison?
Now dominion can invest in rigging elections more stealth like instead of seeing votes flip to other side in real time on the news. Nice!
Do you expect morals from a firm called fox.
Nbc your next.
Remember, Trump won the election in 2016 did all these news channels say Russian collusion Trump cheated how come it’s OK for them to say it but not nobody else can I like how democrat news channels be playing with your intelligence
this settlement was made so that public-dialogue regarding the ILLEGALITY OF FOX NEWS’ ACTIONS is kept under-wraps; they are counting on Americans to forget within a short period of time so that FOX can essentially get off scott-free.
hoping to see more lawsuits leveraged against them in the near future, in an attempt to prevent this from happening
How does Dominion prevent tethering?
so when is the suit for msnbc or cnn ?
This was all about money and not principle. The settlement says it all.
Now Dominion can pay their Chinese components suppliers for the electronics used in the vote counting machines that determine America’s most important election outcomes. Elections Made In China.
Breaking news the media was told to sat Biden won the election as per Mitch McConnell and the Democratic party. We now the media covered up the real results and the Biden administration was doing business with Ukraine before he was president. The DoJ has been found guilty of a cover up.Stay tuned for more we have their emails.
Another accessory after the fact of lying having to pay consequences on behalf of going public to support the web of lies and election propaganda that “THE FATMAN” persists in. He is delusional and a menace to Society. He is seditious and a traitor to America. Terminate the Constitution and Defund the police should be enough to prove that he is a Fascist. A Hitler wanna be. Hitler was a loser as well. Rikers Rikers Rikers
